Property Description

The Villa is ideally located in Italy, near San Casciano dei Bagni half way between Florence and Rome.

The Villa is designed to host aesthetes, those who love the peace of the countryside but who also enjoy modern comforts.
It's unique location near the top of a hill, at around 580 meters above sea level, where Tuscany, Umbria and Lazio meet, offers amazing and unspoiled views over Val D'Orcia and Monte Amiata.
The house sits on a saddle of land in the middle of the countryside; there are virtually no other houses in sight, and nothing to disturb the eye other than the beautiful Tuscan countryside.
Our past Guests have all loved the contrast between the outside that is quite simple and maintains the local character and the inside where you will feel a special atmosphere.
The area offers several oppurtunties for numerous day trips and activities.

Local Activities

Holiday Villa located 5 km away from San Casciano Dei Bagni, one of the "Borghi più belli d'Italia" which means one of the most beautiful villages in Italy and also a mandatory stop on the Roads of Wine and Olive Oil.

Its inhabitants are very friendly and its charming atmosphere, cafes, restaurants, pizzerias and shops will entertain you in each season. San Casciano Dei Bagni is very well known also thanks to Fonteverde Spa that is considered amongst the best European 'wellness' centers. Our Guests can enjoy an high number of treatments and massages in this luxury environment with a 10-15% discount or can visit for no cost the original Etruscan thermal baths which are open to the sky and free to all comers.

Spa and wellness lovers can also visit the famous Saturnia, Chianciano Terme, Bagni San Filippo, Bagno Vignoni, or the amazing Terme Dei Papi in Viterbo, all located within an hour from Villa Felceto.

We are part of the Comune di Acquapendente, ( 20 minutes away) that is well worth a visit for all those travelling from Rome to Siena on the Via Cassia, and well known amongst pilgrims that still nowadays walk through the Via Francigena.

Acquapendente is an interesting mixture of history and modernity, where it is possible to find larger markets and shops, the flower museum, the theatre, the cinema, the music school, gyms, fishing and cycling clubs, and also a small golf club.

In every season there are concerts, local events, and "sagre" to maintain the spirit and folklore of the past, the most famous one is the "Pugnaloni", a flower festival on the third weekend of May.

Behind the Holiday Villa you find the Monte Rufeno National Reserve Park where paths will take you in the heart of the forest to admire in each season the beauty and the changing colors of the nature, and to spot a variety of local animals and birds.

To our South there is the tiny and traditional Village of Trevinano with its two famous restaurants, the Trattoria "Da Gianfranco" for those who like local and typical food in a simple context, or La Parolina with its delicate and sophisticated dishes.

Fans of wine and food will find our area particularly interesting; Montepulciano and Pienza are only half an hour away by car and we can arrange tours to the vineyards to taste some of the best wines in the world. If you like to go a little further to taste local products in Classic Tuscany also tours in Montalcino, Val di Chiana and Chianti can be organized with traditional cars or Vespa.

In half an hour it is possible to reach Monte Amiata (1728m), the second highest mountain in Tuscany, where there are tracks for both cross country and alpine skiing; a similar paradise for trekking is Monte Cetona on the way to Perugia.

Guests can also enjoy horse riding, visiting the famous Poggio in Celle Sul Rigo, only 15 minutes from home, or choosing from a variety of other riding schools in Acquapendente, Val D'Orcia and Maremma.

For those interested in Etruscan civilization there is plenty of sites to visit to learn more about their history. The Tusci that inspired the ancient Romans, used in fact to occupy a wide area that corresponds today to part of Tuscany, Umbria and Upper Lazio where you will encounter several evidences of their culture. The underground Chiusi Necropoli are only half an hour from us, but a tour to Viterbo,Tarquinia, Tuscania or Cerveteri can also be easily arranged if you wish to visit their largest museums.

Staying with us will also give a chance to our Guest to practice water sports in Lake Bolsena, or Lake Trasimeno, where during warmer days it is possible to lie on the many beaches and enjoy a swim in sweet waters.

Enjoy art and history visiting Orvieto's beautiful Duomo, Pitigliano, Sorano, Radicofani, Torre Alfina, Città della Pieve and Sovana's unique and fascinating structure, or go a little further to Siena "Piazza del Campo", to Arezzo for Piero Della Francesca paintings, or to Assisi for Santa Chiara and the San Francesco churches, just to name some of the most interesting attractions in the area.

For those who stay with us a little longer, it is possible also to organize a visit to Rome and Florence or in other historical cities in central Italy.
